Elon Musk Says AI Will Crush Human Coders Within a Year (Watch Video)
Google has announced the global rollout of Google Pics, an AI-powered image creation and editing tool built into Google Workspace. Powered by the Nano Banana model, it lets users create promotional banners, illustrations and social media graphics. It offers object segmentation, text editing, translation and multiple image variations.
Elon Musk has warned that artificial intelligence is set to surpass human ability in software development. He said AI is already extremely capable at coding and will reach what he describes as Stockfish level next year, a standard so advanced that no person can compete. According to Musk, AI will outperform every human at writing code and become highly proficient across all forms of engineering and digital work within 12 to 18 months. He suggested that once this point is reached, the only remaining scarce resource in software will be ownership of the underlying models. The comments underline the rapid pace of AI progress and raise questions about the future role of human programmers in an increasingly automated industry. Elon Musk Predicts AI Will Handle Any Digital Task at Superhuman Level Next Year.
AI Will Crush All Humans, Says Elon Musk
ELON MUSK: âAI can do anything digital, anything that does not require shaping of atoms by hand, probably by the end of next year. AI software will be stockfish-level good meaning that it is impossible for a human to compete in writing software with AI. AI will crush all humans.â pic.twitter.com/l2BMsBNvQA
